The latest software has really clever wizards which let you knock up a design in no time. But design isn’t about knowing which buttons to press. It’s about creating the mood, delivering the message and making the sale. Good design sells. Fact. Bad design – or even just average design – may do more damage to your business than you might care to think. Trust us.

Image is Everything. Ok, so it’s an overused cliché but its nevertheless true. Customers take seconds to judge how professional your organization is by the way your marketing and communications look. Unfortunately you may not necessarily be perceived as well as you think you are.

Looking professional isn’t hard. Investing in well crafted design adds dollars to your bottom line. Two-thirds of companies who ignore design have to compete mainly on price. Where does that leave you if your competitors decide to cut their prices? Making little or no profit… or worse… going out of business. Horrible places to be.

If potential customers take one look at your marketing and think “no thanks”, you’ve lost them at the first hurdle.

You don’t often get a second chance to change their opinion — or if you do, it takes a lot more effort than if you make a great impression first time round.

We can help with a great design – creative and effective artwork is what we do best. Our design fees are probably a lot lower than you think. For details of our low prices look for the Artwork Package logo viewing our “Design & Print Buying Guide” and refer to our separate “Artwork Packages & Web Guide”. These are the minimum we’d expect to charge. If you’re looking for something a bit more individual, please ask for a quote.

It’s All About You

This is where we roll up our sleeves and really get to know you and your company. This step is key in ensuring that the final design reflects your company’s unique values whether we are designing a logo, a rack card or a website. Revelle Design does a lot of listening on this step.

It is important that we gather as much information as possible to create an insightful and professional design that communicates your enthusiasm for who you are and what you do.

We want to know about your business: What is your position in the market – are you the new kid on the block or a staple in the industry, what are your success stories, how do your best customers describe you?

We want to know about your product: Is your business relational or transactional, is your product a luxury or a need, who is your competition and how are they describing your product?

And perhaps, most importantly, who are we speaking to – who are your customers: are they businesses or individuals, young or old, hipsters or homebodies?

We will review your current and past marketing and branding materials including logos, website, brochures, stationary, business cards, etc. to get a comprehensive idea of your current image in the market place. This allows us to effectively tie your company’s image into the new project and maximize past investments.

In some instances, Revelle Design will also provide a Project Questionnaire designed to serve as brainstorming tool. It asks you to compile a collection of marketing materials/ideas/concepts that catch your eye. We at Revelle Design will do the same. We can then come together and collaborate on choosing a direction for the project.

Construction & Delivery

This is the best part… where ideas come to life. One of three things happen:

Website – We’ll publish all related website files to your web host and test every page to ensure everything works flawlessly. Psst…. we offer web hosting, too. Just choose a package from our “Artwork Packages & Web Guide”. If you’re looking for something a bit more individual, please ask for a quote.

Email – Some projects, like logo design, will be sent straight to you. Revelle Design will save all related files in the appropriate formats for use on websites, your office printer and for commercial printing.

Print – On projects being sent to a commercial printer, Revelle Design will prepare high-resolution, print ready files. And you can easily order reprints.

Your project has gone from concept to reality and is ready for the public to see. And now that we know each other so well, please keep us in mind for updates and further projects.
